Greystone Affordable Development helps owners and property developers add to the nation’s affordable housing stock with its expertise in development management, construction, and finance structures. The team, led by President and CEO Tanya Eastwood, brings deep expertise in Low Income Housing Tax Credits, tax-exempt bonds, and government-backed funding available to help create and preserve thousands of affordable homes per year.
In the past year, Greystone Affordable Development helped to develop 1,186 units across 35 properties, adding to its total of over 14,500 units across 12 states in rural areas of the U.S.
“The complications that the COVID-19 pandemic has created for affordable developers cannot be understated – it has caused a number of logistical and material supply issues, as well as extensive labor shortages and tightened financing,” said Ms. Eastwood. “The fact that our team persevered during this challenging time, finding new and creative ways to still make deals work for our clients shows that our end mission of providing safe and affordable housing in communities that desperately need it is what truly drives us each and every day.”
“We are honored for this recognition by CARH, an organization that’s near and dear to us, as we are deeply committed to the mission of creating and preserving affordable rural housing in the U.S.,” she added.
